NOVA,’ Supporting Up to 30 Players *Face off against an existential AI threat when the free-to-play PvE shooter launches on Steam® in 2027* **TOKYO, Japan – September 14, 2026 -** [GungHo Online Entertainment](https://gunghoonline.com/) (GOE) today announced [***B.L.U.E. NOVA***](https://bluenova-thegame.com/?utm_source=press%20release&utm_medium=website&utm_campaign=press%20release)*,* a co-op PvE shooter coming to [Steam®](https://store.steampowered.com/app/4881120?utm_source=press%20release&utm_medium=steam%20page&utm_campaign=press%20release) as a free-to-play title in 2027. In humanity’s fight for survival against AI, our Heroes can work together with up to 30 players to gain overwhelming power and conquer an open world in this next-generation co-op experience. Check out the trailer [here](https://youtu.be/YzJylh_EoB4) for a first look at *B.L.U.E. NOVA*’s co-op combat. *B.L.U.E. NOVA* introduces a new kind of co-op shooter built around the Ring System, a mechanic that turns chance encounters with other players into game-changing firepower. Entering the ring together with allies on the battlefield instantly triggers an Infinite Barrage, a massive power-up with unlimited bullets that delivers an overwhelming sense of exhilaration and a next-generation co-op experience. The game features a dynamic art style combining anime-inspired aesthetics with rich, diverse environments. The otherworldly yet startlingly familiar setting of *B.L.U.E. NOVA* sets the tone with urban architecture, overgrown vegetation, and futuristic technology. This is the battleground where our Heroes will face down the existential threat to humanity. **Game Features** - Take the role of a Hero and get stronger with friends via the game’s innovative **Ring System**, which awakens latent abilities through interactions with other players. By entering the ring and standing close to allies on the battlefield, players can trigger “Infinite Barrage,” a massive power-up with unlimited ammunition that pushes co-op combat into high gear. - In the game’s main mode, **Tower Raid**, work together with up to 30 players to fight back against the runaway AI. You may drop onto the battlefield alone, but once you join forces with allies you meet along the way, your power climbs drastically. Link up, power up, and face off with enemy AI to destroy the central **Master Tower**. - Players select their favorite **Hero** and customize them with equippable **Armor**, skill trees, and other systems that tailor a Hero’s loadout to each player. **A Runaway AI vs. Humanity's Fight for Survival** In the near future, with Earth's end looming in 2200, humanity was forced to migrate to **Planet Dival**, a world strikingly similar to Earth. But **EVE**, the artificial intelligence overseeing the planet's development, went out of control and ignited a rebellion of mechanized weapons. After this uprising, the world was left waiting for the arrival of mercenaries seeking innovation and hope: the **Heroes**. **GungHo to Exhibit B.L.U.E.
